Show 11. I.Q. (which, striking as it may seem, is half the population)." Those who advocate this doctrine are not only quite willing to attempt to implement it by the broadened use of government power but indeed are finding that this is the only way they seem to be able to strive for their objectives. So we are witnessing a large expansion of government and a greater intrusion by government in our everyday lives. Individual freedom of choice is supplanted by governmental direction. No longer are we completely free to price our products, to brag about their advantages, to decide who we will hire and who we will promote, who we will admit to our universities or our labor unions. Even in our private lives Big Daddy feels compelled to protect us from our frailty. No longer are we considered to have the intelligence to be left with the freedom of choice to be able to start our automobile without buckling our seatbelt. I do not claim perfection for our market-oriented economic system, for it has its imperfections. It has not solved to my satisfaction or yours all of our social problems and there are inequities that demand our attention. But I suggest that there are better ways to deal with these social problems at a social cost far lower than abandoning our individual freedom to government, than carrying on the backs of producers the heavy load of the regulators, than decreasing the creativity of an economic system that has proven its ability to create more and better goods than any other system. The time has come to rethink the problem and to limit government to doing those things that the government must do, can do, and does reasonably well. It is time to stop |
